China has hit back at the G-7 summit, calling it an "anti-China workshop" after the group issued a joint communique that singled out China on issues ranging from Taiwan and maritime claims to economic coercion and human rights. Beijing summoned Japan's envoy and berated Britain in response to the statements issued at the weekend in Hiroshima. Despite Beijing's pointed reaction, President Joe Biden said he expected a thaw in frosty relations with China "very shortly."
